The driver properly detects the link speed, and does detect when I plug the cable in or out. However, it does not send or receive any packets, all the counters are always at 0's though there must be more at least due to DHCP activity. dmesg does not show any errors neither on the host or on the guest. ifconfig on the guest: eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:07:e9:0f:c8:10 UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) lspci -vvv on the guest: .... 00:03.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corporation 82540EM Gigabit Ethernet Controller (rev 02) Subsystem: Intel Corporation Device 002e Control: I/O+ Mem+ BusMaster+ SpecCycle- MemWINV- VGASnoop- ParErr- Stepping- SERR- FastB2B- DisINTx- Status: Cap+ 66MHz+ UDF- FastB2B- ParErr- DEVSEL=medium >TAbort- <TAbort- <MAbort- >SERR- <PERR- INTx- Latency: 32 (63750ns min), Cache Line Size: 64 bytes Interrupt: pin A routed to IRQ 11 Region 0: Memory at f0000000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Region 1: Memory at f0020000 (32-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=128K] Region 2: I/O ports at c040 [size=64] Expansion ROM at 20000000 [disabled] [size=128K] Capabilities: [40] Message Signalled Interrupts: Mask- 64bit- Queue=0/0 Enable- Address: 00000000 Data: 0000 Kernel driver in use: e1000 Kernel modules: e1000 cat /proc/interrupts on the guest: CPU0 0: 89 IO-APIC-edge timer 1: 1088 IO-APIC-edge i8042 4: 2 IO-APIC-edge 6: 2 IO-APIC-edge floppy 7: 4 IO-APIC-edge parport0 8: 0 IO-APIC-edge rtc0 9: 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi acpi 11: 0 IO-APIC-fasteoi eth0 12: 1333 IO-APIC-edge i8042 14: 98 IO-APIC-edge ata_piix 15: 9874 IO-APIC-edge ata_piix NMI: 0 Non-maskable interrupts LOC: 59892 Local timer interrupts SPU: 0 Spurious interrupts CNT: 0 Performance counter interrupts PND: 0 Performance pending work RES: 0 Rescheduling interrupts CAL: 0 Function call interrupts TLB: 0 TLB shootdowns TRM: 0 Thermal event interrupts THR: 0 Threshold APIC interrupts MCE: 0 Machine check exceptions MCP: 7 Machine check polls ERR: 0 MIS: 0 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Sergey Cheperis () Date: 2009-11-17 02:02 Message: qemu-kvm-0.11 stable - same result.
